Nutrivita Foods first participation to the World Food India from 3rd to 5th november 2017 in New Dehli. A unique occasion to talk about its products and innovative activities in the field of nutrition.

For the first time, Nutrivita Foods, member of the PlumpyField® network and supported by Onyx Développement (Groupe Nutriset) attended the World Food India (WFI) from 3rd to 5th november 2017 in New Dehli. An exhibition space was a unique occasion to talk about its products and innovative activities in the field of nutrition.

Based in Pune, State of Maharashtra, India, Nutrivita Foods is an agri-food company dedicated to the manufacturing of high nutritional value food products. Through the valorisation of local raw materials, it manufactures Plumpy’Nut®, Plumpy’Sup™ and Plumpy’Doz™, ready-to-use specialised foods developed by Nutriset to support vulnerable populations in the prevention and treatment of malnutrition. These products are exported from India to a dozen countries in Africa and Asia, like in Afghanistan or Bangladesh.

Nutrivita Foods aims to also develop food supplements to meet the specific needs of targeted populations such as children enrolled in school feeding programmes or pregnant and lactating women during pre and post-natal care.

Established in 2010, Nutrivita Foods stems from the international partnership between Indian entrepreneurs and entities from the Nutriset Group, whose contributions in the field of nutrition and particularly the fight against malnutrition are widely recognised, through field-based scientific research projects, a comprehensive agro-industrial expertise and a unique social mandate.

Nutrivita Foods is a member of the PlumpyField® network which gathers agri-food producers aligned on a similar activity: the fight against malnutrition and for food satisfaction. This independent international network present in 10 countries allows synergies in research, knowledge capitalization, operational excellence, innovation and quality. Their common mission is to contribute to nutritional autonomy for all.

By participating in the WFI, Nutrivita Foods was able to share its experience with local agribusiness stakeholders, discuss its mandate and actions with government officials and meet organizations and companies with the same vision and commitment on key issues of nutrition.

The lesson to be learned from this participation at WFI: in India, the mobilization around quality food and nutrition is today a factor of innovation for all social actors.

On February 15th, 2017, in in El Daein (East-Darfour), Sudan, Darfood Company inaugurates its first industrial site aimed to valorize locally grown peanuts via its modern technology.

This modern agro-industrial facility is a first of its kind to be established in a region which is most often known for other events. Opening this new peanut processing unit strengthens a partnership initiated in 2014 between the French company Onyx Développement (Nutriset Group) and the Sudanese company, SAY, a Yagoub family holding.

In the Nutriset Group, Onyx Développement is in charge of local partnerships to build a sustainable and innovative agro-industry in the countries of the South. The companies are already associated since 2011 through the Samil Industrial Company which has been producing nutritional solutions such as Plumpy’Nut® and Plumpy’Sup™ in Khartoum, designed by Nutriset for the treatment of severe malnutrition via humanitarian actors.

Created in partnership with EVD, the Netherlands Enterprise Agency, the Darfood project empowers to create 200 jobs, with a daily production capacity of 150 metric tons.

With the Darfood Company, Onyx Développement and SAY desire to develop a project for the valorization of peanuts grown in Darfur, a region which is particularly favorable to its cultivation. This industrial initiative includes the whole sector, from supporting the growers, who have started to be trained by Darfood and with whom cooperation agreements have been set up, to the conversion of this agricultural raw material in all its forms. The implementation of this processing unit will support local development and enhance the value of this agricultural network, while constantly striving for quality.

Darfood will process groundnut in order to make it usable for industrial purposes (oil or processing into agri-food products etc.) or for direct usages (roasted peanuts hand- picked selected). The products will be marketed both for domestic and international markets.

The residues from the production, such as the shells, will be used as cattle feed, in line with the company’s eco-responsible policy.

Throughout the process, from harvesting to transformation, special care will be taken to respect high-quality production standards.
